Step 2: Pick

Pick four lucky numbers from 0 to 9, marking one number per row on a Daily 4 playslip. Or, play randomly generated numbers with Quick Pick®.

Next pick your playstyle: Straight, Box or Straight/Box.

One playslip can hold up to five plays using your lucky numbers and you may play as many playslips as you like.

To play the same numbers and playstyle for consecutive draws, just mark Advance Play®.

Playstyle

Daily 4 has three different playstyles:

Straight - Your numbers must match the winning numbers in exactly the same order.

Box - Your numbers must match the winning numbers in ANY order.

Straight/Box - This is a combination of both the Straight and Box playstyles and your $1 play is split evenly between the two ways of winning. If you match the winning numbers in exact order, you win approximately half the Straight prize plus approximately half the Box prize. If you match the winning numbers in any other order, you win approximately half the Box prize only.

Advance Play

Advance Play allows you to play multiple draws with one purchase.

You can play the same numbers and playstyle for 1-7 or 14 consecutive draws on one playslip by marking the Advance Play box.

Note:Make sure to mark your numbers with either blue or black ink. And if you make a mistake, don’t erase. Just mark the VOID box.

Player’s Strategies

A shared prize pool means that less-played numbers have a better chance at bigger prizes. For this reason, some players try to select less-played numbers with the hopes to split the prize pool with fewer people.

Remember, to win Daily 4 all of your numbers must match all of the winning numbers. Each number is independent of the other three numbers. That means, if the winning numbers are 3-3-1-2, you must have a three, another three, a one, and a two in your chosen numbers to win.

Step 3: Buy

Give your playslip to the store clerk along with $1 for each play to receive a Daily 4 ticket, which is your receipt.

Your ticket displays your numbers and selected playstyle for each play, the draw date and the dollar amount paid.

Always check th accuracy of your numbers and sign the back of your ticket.
